The Sixth Blog on the Horrible Dogmatic Partnership of the Physical Sciences, Life Scientists, and Medical Doctors

After reading five chapters of "God: The Failed Hypothesis" by Victor J. Stenger, I conclude that Stenger did not read my book and thus knows little about modern proofs of God. He is also unaware of the modern ideas that have emerged after alternatives to the ancient views of a monotheistic God were found by new theologians such as me. So, Stenger’s first five chapters only show that some past hypotheses of God are weak. Weak ancient hypotheses, in scriptures and man’s conclusions about God, are normal in a created and endless universe that is a ‘best, rather than perfect, world of all worlds.’

Many nations agreed on physical measures such as meter for length, new ton for force, kilogram for mass, joule for energy, coulumb for charge, ampere for current, ohm for electrical resistence, etc. These measures were carefully defined in terms of either some natural phenomena (e.g., the period of the rotation of the earth about the sun), some standard object (e.g., the length of a specific rod in Paris), or some other unit (kilogram per second squared).

Out of these standards came the following measures:

1. Six primary measures (charge, temperature, mass, length, time duration, and angle).
2. Secondary measures (e; g., laws of nature, such as density equals mass divided by volume)
3. Constants.

To say that the laws of physics come from data, as Stenger says, is not well thought out because all phenomena that physicists observe must be in some thing-in-itself. Stenger must identify the things in which phenomena exist. He must also show us the origin of each thing in the universe.

A physicist cannot publish information only about an ever changing universe. There are constants in things that change and constants in things that do not change.

History tells us that creating a science out of purely empirical data has been accepted only by atheists.
